Gen. LOgan's Sudden Death

Is great shock to the nation. Few
knew that he was even iDdisposed
when the news OF his death flashed
over the wires and thousands OF
people stood aghast ct the sudden
change from health and vigor to
cold and silent death. For the past
twenty five years there has been no
man more constantly before the pub
lie than General John A. Logan.
Through all his career he has been
noted for his fearlessness and purity
Of character, both in public and pri-
vate life. Loved by friends and re-
spected by enemies he will be
mourned by all.
His death adds another to the long
list Of victims to sudden and acute
rheumatism. Probably no disease
Is so common as rheumatism, none
is more sudden or dangerous, and
there is certainly none which so COM
pletely battles medical skill.
Only one remedy has Yet been dis
covered which is sure and safe
cure for rheumatism and it's twin
disease, neuralgia, and that is Athlo-
phorOs. In thousands OF cases
Athlophoros has pro we'd quick and
certain cure for those diseases. In
connection with Athlophoros Pills it
has never yet failed to speedily effect

In all probability many deaths at.

by these terrible diseases, which are
far more dangerous than Is general

Literary Notes.

It Is believed that the success OF
Scribner's Magazine Is unique in the
history Of magazines. The first
(January) number was published on
December 18th, the nrst edition be-
ing 100, 900 copies. It was exhaust
ed on the day Of publication. On
Saturday, December 18th. . second
edition OF $4,000 copies appeared,
which was at once consumed, and an
additional $1,000 was put to press
40, 900 copies having been already
sold. The demand was SO great that
It was impossible to keep the dealers
supplied. On the day Of publication
1000 copies were sold upon the news
stands OF the elevated railroads; at
the ews-stands Of one Of the New
York hotels, nearly 500 copies were
disposed Of on the first afternoon Of
its appearance, and several OF the
dealers at the ferries leading from
New York sold 600 copies on the first
day.

work. Had the law provided that
each pharmacist should pay to the
local authorities which they infiict
with their presence, tax OF from
120O to 81 900 annually for the privi-
lege to deal In liquors, then public
meetings might become necessary
to see that thee were no more
pharmacists in the community than
were paying the required tax. Now
where the pharmacy law Is best
enforced, the most liquor is sold
and consumed, because its purpose

The Church Usher.

The usher is more important fac
tor in the church going world than he
was 25 years ago. He does his work bet
ter now than then and perhaps no church
i'm the land has directly contributed to
this result more than Plymouth church
of Brooklyn. Some years ago friend
of ours who was spending a Sunday in
New York went to hear Beecher preach.
Though stranger in the city as he
stepped from the boat on the Brooklyn
side he had only to "fOllOw the crowd
from the ferry" to find Plymouth
church. 1t was a hot, dusty, uncOm-
Portable day. The vestibule of the
church was crowded, but the pleasant
greeting of an usher, "Wait moment
and will see that you have seat"
and, later, the little cOurtesies shown
him by the pew-hOlders, Enthusiastically
signifying, eve are glad to have you
with us to-day" fairly captured him.
He had attended New York and Brook
Ign churches before and had met with
a variety of experiences, good, bad and
Indifferent. Here he was at home and
the consequence has been that in sub
sequent years when in Brooklyn or
New York, this particular stranger,
though not a great admirer of Beecher,
has attended Plymouth church. 1t
was not altogether the great preacher
but the great usher as we'll that cap
tured him. The humble usher has a
great deal to do in settling the ques
ton of churching the unchurched, it
being assumed all the while that the
pew-hOlder stands ready to do his part.
The shrewd business man makes his
customer feel at home and so treats
him that he will desire to come again.
The wise usher and the wise pew
holder exercise the same worldly wis
dom.

Postmaster Carpenters Removal.

The removal of postmaster Carpen
ter from the st. JOhnsbury post office
before the expiration of his commits
sion, furnishes a striking illustration
of the Inconsistency of the administra-
ton SO far as civil service reform in
Vermont is concerned. No charges so
far as we know of any sort have
been preferred against him. He was
never known to make political
speech in his life. He never held a
political appointment of any kind, un-
less the position of postmaster be so
considered. No possible construction
of language can make him out an "Of-
fensive partisan" and no attempt to do
so is made. He is simply republi-
can +; he was brave soldier he voted
for Blaine. Whether he had held the
Office as long as he was entitled to it,
had had "his SHARE" has nothing to
do With the case. The administration
at Washington advertises to remove
no faithful officer except for cause.
Mr.. Carpenter is republican. That
seems to be the cause in this case.
We want to see this administration
succeed in its efforts to reform the civ
il service, but we want to see it con-
sistent.

Uneasy Rests the Head, etc.

The old saying that the head thai
wears a crown is not necessarily the
head that rests the easiest, finds an il
lustration in the almost pathetic "au-
thOrized official declaration" concern
ing the recent attempt on the life oil
the car of Russia. Here is an extract
from the statement:
The car was deeply impressed by
the terrible circumstances under which
his father met his death. The last at
tempt upon his own life, projected by
nihilists, produced feeling of horror.
Still, it is unlikely that it will lead to
change of his previous policy. His
majesty cannot but view with mingled
bitterness and regret the position in
which he is placed by threats and per-
ills continually besetting him. He de-
plores the necessity which constantly
exits for costly and extensive precau-
tons for his personal safety whenever
he desires to travel or even to move
beyond the precincts of the palace, re-
strictiOns which impede his movements
and prevent his seeing his people as
they are and judging for himself con-
corning their needs.

A Message From Dakota.

1t seems well nigh impossible to
please our Western friends. We have
frequently called attention to some OF
the more prominent characteristics OF
Dakota as place of residence. The
more we do the less it is appreciated.
The Vermont City Dakota) Journal
thus expresses itself:
The newspapers all over the state of
Vermont have at last opened their
hearts in sympathy with us and are
sounding their biggest hewgag in their
almost frantic endeavOrs to keep the
little remnant of their people from
coming to Dakota. We thank them
kindly, but they need not tell so many
awful lies about our climate, soil, cy-
clones and so forth. We are quite
willing they should scare their people
down there if they want to, but if a
stray copy of theirs should happen to
get to Norway, or Sweden, or Denmark,
or Germany, or Russia, or Africa,
where our best emigration comes from,
it might hurt our feelings and pros
poets.
